That was well below the belt Ardesco...

I know, I'm evil. I just couldn't resist...

You could always start up an old tat shop in Basingstoke while you wait...

I've got another interview today for another contract.

I already have one offer, which we are still bandying make and forth but no signed contract and I'm on the shortlist with four others.

Fairly certain I'll get offered the gig this afternoon as well.

How long should you carry on before deciding to call it a day?

never stop. ever. you're in business right? why would you stop looking for work even if in work? and certainly not if you're not in work. even if you have got a "legendary" interview to offer ratio.

Good advice, IMO. I'm not a greedy ass contractor for nothing. I'm here for as much as I can make and if I get offered more, I'll walk.

Never stop, keep applying for bigger(£) and better roles

Always turn down the first 37% of contracts offered.

if you already out of work then keep applying until your first day at new work!
if you got other interview's lined up then make sure you take your contract or mention it in the interview use it to negotiate higher and better positions!
